Facelift bumper finally fitted and i'm very pleased with how it's looking. A much needed mod I think, don't know why I waited so long to do it.
Not sure about fog cover stickers yet, might not bother.
Few pics:

They are silly money, also hard to find. I'm thinking of cutting the edge bit where the vents clip into and just leave a smooth hole, maybe a bit of black mesh.

Last couple of front end finishing touches done.

Thinking about 6 speed conversion next.

Beautiful car(s) and beautiful driveway and garage too! Was there really such thing as optional extra roll cage then for these Type R's? Definitely didn't have this option for the UK cars(?)

From what I can figure out going by the STI paperwork and peeps on here I think it might be.
I was asking about it on here a while back, have a little read.

I looked around for a nice replacement for the gearstick surround/Gaiter but could only see ones for the later spec classic. I ended up cutting down the normal rubber surround so only the outer edge fitting bit was left then used a later spec leather type gaitor which sits nicely under the rubber bit, not ideal but does the job.
